We study the conformal bootstrap for 4-point functions of fermions $\langle \psi_i \psi_j \psi_k \psi_{\ell} \rangle$ in parity-preserving 3d CFTs, where $\psi_i$ transforms as a vector under an $O(N)$ global symmetry. We compute bounds on…

We study quantum corrections to an extra dimensional Yukawa theory where a single flat extra spatial dimension is compactified on an interval. At a UV scale this theory can be made equivalent to a 5D theory with a bulk four-fermion operator…
The light-like cusp anomalous dimension is a universal function in the analysis of infrared divergences. In maximally ($\mathcal{N}=4$) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory (SYM) in the planar limit, it is known, in principle, to all loop…

Models of strongly interacting theories with a large mass anomalous dimension ($\gamma_m$) provide an interesting possibility for the dynamical origin of the electroweak symmetry breaking. A laboratory for these models is QCD with many…

We investigate a class of current-current, Gross-Neveu like, perturbations of WZW models in which the full left-right affine symmetry is broken to the diagonal global algebra only. Our analysis focuses on those supergroups for which such a…
In arXiv:1909.01269 it was shown that the scaling dimension of the lightest charge $n$ operator in the $U(1)$ model at the Wilson-Fisher fixed point in $d=4-\varepsilon$ can be computed semiclassically for arbitrary values of $\lambda n$,…
Topological defect lines (TDLs) are extended line operators which act on the Hilbert space of two-dimensional CFTs and satisfy non-trivial fusion algebras when forming junctions. Among the most interesting fusion algebras are the so-called…
In the paper [L. Fei et al., JHEP 09 (2015) 076] a cubic field theory of a scalar field $\sigma$ and two anticommuting scalar fields, $\theta$ and $\bar \theta$, was formulated. In $6-\epsilon$ dimensions it has a weakly coupled fixed point…

Spontaneously broken Abelian gauge symmetries can explain the fermion mass hierarchies of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. In most cases it is assumed that the $U(1)_H$ symmetry is anomalous. However, non-anomalous models are also…
We investigate a class of extra dimensional models where all of the Standard Model fermions are localized to a single fixed point in an $S_1/Z_2$ orbifold, and each species is localized with an exponential wavefunction with a different…
